Sell items by weight.

Recommended Posts

Hi, looking to adapt some of our products to sell them by weight, i.e. 500g of carrots.

I can only find quantity as the selling option, and this has to be a whole number. I could adapt this to sell in Kilos or Pounds, but typically this requires fractions, i.e. 1.5Kg or 2.5Lb.

I haven't found a way to enable fractions, currently the quantity product box only accepts whole numbers. I could use grams but that's not very customer friendly, 2000g of potatoes is more commonly known as 2Kg and would cause some serious issues for the customer trying to shop like this.

Wondering if I can inject some header code to the product template, but it's not for every product, we'd still want to sell some in quantity.

Help!

Thanks in advance.

Product quantities can only be an integer (whole number). I don't expect fractional units to be added any time soon.

The only workaround is to add variants with descriptions like "500g", "1 Kg", "1.5 Kg" and so on.
